Slobbo Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Not so far. Have you watched our games? JJ played route 1 with Killie. This year has been refreshing... May or may not continue, but we had more shots at goal at Aberdeen on Saturday than we had in any random 5 away games last year with JJ. We could say the same about our team since JJ replaced Shabba, which doesn't really fit with your agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May or may not continue, but we had more shots at goal at Aberdeen on Saturday than we had in any random 5 away games last year with JJ. Maybe route one was the most effective playing style JJ could play with the players at his disposal because you bellend of a chairman would not allow him anymore funds to sign better players?

Tommy Wiseau Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 JJ's public position tomorrow will be that they (including him) tried to get Bryson but couldnt persuade Kilmarnock to part with him for the valuation we had of him. To me that leaves JJ looking silly to start with, for spending 3 months chasing a target he didnt get and not having a plan B. Even in the unlikely event that someone convinced JJ we would get Bryson no matter what, there STILL should have been a Plan B just in case, because this position IMO is absolutely key for us this season given what we've seen so far from our central midfield I think the point is, we haven't seen our central midfield yet full stop, thanks to Jonsson and Stevenson's suspensions. No danger are Palazuelos/Black our first choice partnership. A quality AM would be lovely, but even without one we're a much stronger squad than the one that finished last season.

Mr Sifter Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Flood, can you explain why Killie rate Bryson so highly if, as you suggest, his entire Kilmarnock career has been spent watching the ball being hoofed over him? What are you/Killie basing your price on given he never actually participated for you under JJ? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginger jambo98 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 So you believe an agent? If Killie are under such financial pressure why have we signed about 8 players? Not saying I do or don't only saying what I've heard. How much was paid out for the 8 - not much I reckon. Id it goes thruppennies up for Mixup, you can guarantee a few departures at New Year.

jamboinglasgow Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 In football rules, would we of been allowed to get an English club to put a bid in for Bryson, then take him on a season long loan at the end of which we pay the full amount to English club so that we get around MJ's hatred of JJ (obviously needs to be secert that the other team are bidding him for us.)

What are you/Killie basing your price on given he never actually participated for you under JJ? Cheers. If you have ever watched Bryson then you would see the work he does. Midfielders still have to work when playing route 1 football, probably even more so. It is a bit simplistic to argue that he never does anything as ball is always in air...

Harry Palmer Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I have to say that magicTs is living up to my prediction and hope the Admin are prepared... Is it time to say Mad Vald oot yet? We've made offers, they have been rejected, several times. I would like to see Eggert in midfield with Stevenson but I'm sure Eggert will be delighted to be playing no matter what position it is. Which he has stated. The new JKB demand....'We need a Midfielder!' as opposed to 'We need a Striker!' I'm happy with the progress made so far over the summer and won't rage just because we have failed to sign a player. It'll take time to address the flaws in the squad, more than one transfer window.

stirlo Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 As some others have pointed out, all in all this has been a very decent transfer window. Kyle, Elliot and Barr are all well above the standard of player signed by any other non old-firm club in this transfer window. We might not be great, but our squad is generally much stronger than last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
